#cookiecritic

Greetings fellow cookie enthusiasts. Before my first cookie review, I’d like to share the scoring system that I will use as the basis for all future cookie scores. After all, consistency is paramount for any reputable food critic. 

A cookie’s overall score will be the function of four distinct Flavor Factors (TM). Each Flavor Factor - Texture & Consistency, Chocolate Chip Ratio, Price, and Overall Flavor Profile - will be scored on a scale from 1-5 and weighed relative to its importance to the final product. The table below lists the four Flavor Factors and their weightings. Note that a “perfect” cookie (should one exist) would receive a 5-Cookie Rating.

The following table provides additional qualitative analysis on how each Cookie Rating looks, tastes, and feels.
